+mp3fs is a read-only FUSE filesystem which transcodes between
+audio formats (currently FLAC to MP3) on the fly when files
+are opened and read.
+
+It can let you use a FLAC collection with software and/or
+hardware which only understands the MP3 format, or transcode
+files through simple drag-and-drop in a file browser.
+
+Usage:
+
+Mount your music like so (for example)
+mp3fs -b 192 /mnt/music /mnt/mp3 -o allow_other,ro
+
+or use the following entry in /etc/fstab:
+/mnt/music /mnt/mp3 fuse allow_other,ro,bitrate=192 0 0
